If reason dominates in man, he rises higher than angels. If lust overpowers man, he descends lower than the beast.

More quotes by Rumi
Never lose hope when the beloved sends you away. If you're abandoned if you're left hopeless tomorrow for sure you'll be called again. If the door is shut right in your face keep waiting with patience don't leave right away. Seeing your patience your love will soon summon you with grace raise you like a champion.
Rumi
Those who practice Love have neither Religion or Status.
Rumi
Do you pay regular visits to yourself? Start now.
Rumi
Behind every atom of this world hides an infinite Universe.
Rumi
The Soul is a stranger trying to find a Home somewhere that is not a where.
Rumi
The sky will bow down to your beauty, if you do.
Rumi
Set your sights on a place higher than your eyes can see.
Rumi
The miracle of Jesus is himself, not what he said or did about the future. Forget the future. I'd worship someone who could do that.
Rumi
There is a window between heart and heart: They are never separate like two bodies. Two lamps may not be united in their form - But their light merges into each other.
Rumi
Fling me across the fabric of time and the seas of space. Make me nothing and from nothing-everything.
Rumi
Every moment a taste of that beauty in our mouths, another stashed in a pocket. Impossible to say what: no cypress so handsome, no sunlight, a lonely hiddenness. Other pleasure gathers a crowd, starts a fight, lots of noise there. But soul beauty stays quiet..his amazing whereabouts unknown inside my heart.
Rumi
Be occupied, then, with what you really value and let the thief take something else.
Rumi
How will you know the difficulties of being human, if you are always flying off to blue perfection? Where will you plant your grief seeds? Workers need ground to scrape and hoe, not the sky of unspecified desire.
Rumi
Rush out in the rain to be soaked with the sky.
Rumi
Disputational knowing wants customers. It has no soul.
Rumi
Be an empty page, untouched by words.
Rumi
When you go through a hard period, When everything seems to oppose you, ... When you feel you cannot even bear one more minute, NEVER GIVE UP! Because it is the time and place that the course will divert!
Rumi
In order to understand the dance one must be still. And in order to truly understand stillness one must dance.
Rumi
Whatever lifts the corners of your mouth, trust that
Rumi
Swim out of your little pond.
